This Pedersoli Kodiak Express rifle is stocked in walnut with a checkered wrist and forearm. The .50 caliber barrels are 28" long. These rifles have been made with a few different barrel twists over the years. This rifle has a 1 in 24" rate of twist. Locks are engraved and color case-hardened. The stock and ramrod pipe have slung swivel lugs to allow easy carrying; No swivels are fitted. This double rifle is used with a handling mark on the stock and a ding on the outer edge of the muzzle. Both bores are bright and have been well maintained. The 13-1/4" and 14-1/4" length of pull should fit today's average shooter. The rifle weighs 11.3 pounds.

The 28" blued barrels are .50 caliber, rifled with a 1 in 24" twist. The bores are bright and have been well maintained. The elevated front sight ramp is mounted to the rib, fitted with a brass bead. Two folding leaf rear sights are mounted at the breech. Each rear sight is individually adjustable for elevation and windage. The side of the left barrel is marked with the mfg. markings and caliber near the breech. The right-hand barrel has a cosmetic ding on the outer edge of the muzzle.

The walnut stock is checkered at the wrist and the forearm, and appears near new with one larger dent on the right-hand side of the stock. Fitted with a polished and blued steel butt plate, the flat surface will help absorb the recoil from the .50 caliber double barrels. The long tang is engraved and color case-hardened. The rear two screws are properly spaced to accept our Creedmoor Vernier 3" tang sight. However, most hunters prefer the open sights as published, when hunting big game. A single wedge key retains the barrel to the forearm. The wedge key allows you to dismount the hooked breech, which allows for easy cleaning of the barrels without risk of wetting the stock.

The long trigger plate is color case-hardened, while the triggerguard is blued. The ramrod entry pipe is also color case-hardened. The rear sling swivel stud is securely mounted in the butt stock, while the forward swivel is mounted to the rear ramrod pipe. No swivels or sling are included with this rifle. The factory ramrod has been replaced with a black synthetic rod fitted with a brass loading tip. The opposite end is fitted with a brass tip threaded 8-32 to accept cleaning and loading accessories. No cheek is carved on the butt stock, making this rifle suitable for both a right or left-handed shooter.

The Pedersoli Express Rifle bar locks are engraved with flowing scrolls, and a color case-hardened in vivid mottled colors. The locks and triggers function as they should. The breech is fitted with steel 1/4-28 nipples for No. 11 CCI percussion caps.
